Hi all,

I keep getting this pop up message whenever I am navigating around chess.com:

'You have chose to open afr.php, which is a php file from: http://dsp/chess.co,

Open or save?'

Erm, what is this file exactly? Thanks!

are you still getting this? that is really weird...

php files are like html files and are used to show information in your browser, but they do a lot more than meets the eye. When you are asked to save/open a .php file, usually means the server operator has messed up a configuration on the server or didn't install the php engine at all...

Just 'X' it.

Yes Erik, I am still getting this. I'll make a note of what pages it comes up on, to see if there is a pattern.

Cody, you seem to know a lot about it, I x it every time but it keeps coming up - is there a way to fix it, or do you need more info?

PhP files execute server side, which means they are able to communicate with a database to output/input information from/to it. What you are experiencing is very strange and should not be happening.

I am getting it as well.  I use Firefox.

I use firefox, and it seems to come up randomly, ie, not on any specific page.

Use IE or Mozilla and this would never happen. It is a Google Chrome problem .

Oh dear.

i've tried to reproduce this and i can't :( i know it is related to ads, but i can't tell what it is. can someone save that file and email it to me at chessdev{@]gmail.com ?

It has been clear.

Erik, stll getting the message! Any luck?

I get this too.  Using firefox.  It seems to occur at random, when clicking on various links within chess.com.

Use IE then?

It's STOPPED :O

I get this a lot when i click on vote chess games!!!

It might well be malware, i'd just keep 'x' ing it!!

yep, this is really weird. i use firefox and it happens to me too from time to time. still no luck about how to fix it..

yeah...I get it too from time to time (I use firefox)

I have the same problem too.I use firefox.Is there any solution?
